Two and a half weeks to go. Roughly. Ticking time bomb, really. Could go any time. Yessir… Any time at all.
I had a nice little panic attack this afternoon, hyperventilated until I couldn’t feel my hands. Then went upstairs […]

Dang, it’s suddenly turning out to be a great week! In brief:

After a couple miserable days of near-100-degree temperatures, the weather has cooled off and is now downright awesome.
Got my monitor back from Apple (no thanks to DHL, who apparently don’t even believe in leaving slips at the door when they ignore the “no […]

I knew things were going to be nuts for a little bit after my exam. But the calm after the storm has finally arrived. And I like the calm. Now I just need to get my butt to pool.
This is the first weekend in a looooonnngggg time that I don’t […]

But first a few days rest and a massage.

Mood: exhausted

Exam is in 4 days. I’ve made studying my full-time job this week. Was having a good week till yesterday when I got my final mock exam feedback, and that was like being kicked in the head.
I’ve read, re-read, and re-re-read all the feedback. I feel I have a better idea […]

I sent a message to my main contact for school in New York about a few topics. At the end of the message I asked if he had any final suggestions.
And this is what I got, “Less then two-weeks to go? Nothing at this point is going to dramatically change the […]

I can’t believe it’s May 21st! I can’t believe Memorial Day is a week away! Where did this spring go?
I have 3 weeks till my scary, big, monstrous exam. Studing is going along, but I need to shift into very high gear starting this week, actually today. So anyone plans on […]
